4.00% 4-Month CD at a NY/NJ/CT Bank (Hudson City Savings)
Jul 20, 2008 - 3:59 PM by Ken Tumin
Hudson City Savings Bank is offering a 4.00% APY 4-month certificate of deposit. The minimum deposit is $500. There are different rate tables for the 3 states, but all seem to have this same rate.
My last report on this bank was in October 2007 when it was offering a 5.30% 6-month CD.
Above the rate table it states that Bank by Mail deposits welcome, but only for long term CDs. So it appears a branch visit would be required to open this 4-month CD. Please refer to the bank's branch locator for branch locations in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
The bank has a 5-star rating (superior) at BauerFinancial based on 3/31/08 data. It has been FDIC insured since 1934 (Certificate # 13074).
